Story
I am raising money in my grandfathers memory. Watching him deteriorate because of dementia was the hardest thing. He was a loving husband to his wife Molly and loving father to my mother and uncle. he was also a loving grandfather to his 5 grandchildren and sadly never got to meet his only great granddaughter but I know he’s up there watching 💙
We miss him so much and raising a small amount to fund research into this horrible disease so that others can be supported is just a small part to help.
Dementia is the UKs biggest killer. Someone develops it every three minutes and currently there is no cure. We know it is scary but we must confront the biggest health & social care challenge of our time. We owe it to the 900,000 people across the UK currently living with dementia to campaign for change, whilst providing vital day-to-day support. By taking part and raising money, or donating to someone who is, you are helping to do this.
Once you donate, JustGiving sends your money directly to Alzheimer's Society you don't need to do anything and it's the most efficient way to fundraise. So, who will you walk for? #MemoryWalk
